Deaf Awareness Course for Local Businesses in Milford on Sea

There is now an opportunity to teach your team or group about Deaf Awareness in Milford on Sea.

British Sign Language helps deaf people communicate with their silent world, and your business or organisation can learn about the importance of Deaf Awareness, and a enjoy a brief overview of this amazing language, in a valuable 90 minute course in Milford on Sea.

We are fortunate to have Nancy Weatherson running the course, she is a qualified Deaf Communications Professional living in the village, and she supports deaf and hard of hearing people throughout the UK.

Nancy is now offering a short course on Deaf Awareness in the village for your business or organisation. Just imagine the smiles, if you, or any of your team, could communicate with any deaf people you meet.

In 2022 the BSL Act was passed, meaning that British Sign Language has now been recognised as a language of England, Wales and Scotland in its own right. This is a wonderful success for the deaf community.

Nancy works closely with Deaf Professionals and together they have created this Deaf Awareness Course, which is designed to introduce some useful communication tactics to you as an individual, or your group.

If this is something that you believe your team, or your organisation will benefit from and enjoy, now is your chance to learn something new that will really make a difference.

Few that saw it, will ever forget the stunning and highly emotional dance by Rose Ayling-Ellis, as she perfectly danced in silence on Strictly Come Dancing.

Rose is a big supporter of British Sign Language. She has been deaf since birth and uses BSL herself to communicate with the world. 

She & Giovanni became Strictly Come Dancing Champions in 2021, during which they performed 'Silent Symphony', without doubt, the best ever dance on this long-running and much loved show.
